A Cultural Revolution?
I've made the big time! Reader Clark Thomas calls my attention to an item way down the DMN's fashion section's year-end in-vs.-out list. "At some level," he writes, "I suppose that is an honor, though I can think of a number of others to put on the 'out' list."
Clark is also kind enough to supply this NYT book review, which will help readers who don't understand why this comparison is so funny, yet not entirely inconceivable. "Perhaps, though, yours [your book, that is--vp] will also inspire 'readers everywhere to rise up and rip one another limbless,'" he writes.
On a more serious note, Strategy+Business has named The Substance of Style to its year-end list of Best Business Books. (Because of the magazine's lead time, books published in the fall, e.g., September 2003, get included in the following year's list.) A review essay is here and editor-in-chief Randall Rothenberg discussed the choice on NPR's "Morning Edition".
